Big Brother Naija

The third edition of Africa’s biggest reality television show, Big Brother Naija, premieres on Sunday, January 28, 2018, at 7pm Nigerian time.

Viewers on DStv can catch the show on channel 198, while GOtv viewers can tune in to channel 29 to catch all of the excitement as contestants battle for the grand prize of an SUV and N45million worth of prizes.

The premiere follows weeks of excitement as auditions for the show held across different regions in Nigeria. Big Brother fans were also treated to nostalgic fun as housemates from the second edition gathered for a special reunion show broadcast exclusively on DStv and GOtv.

Speaking on the return, General Manager, Sales and Marketing for MultiChoice Nigeria, Martin Mabutho, said: “Without a doubt, this promises to be the most exciting edition of the Big Brother franchise on the African continent.

“The last edition of Big Brother Naija was incredibly successful and we see just how much the show continues to resonate with fans in Nigeria and around the continent.

“We can hardly wait for Sunday, and we guarantee not only that our viewers will enjoy the premiere show, but that they will stay tuned for three months until the show’s finale when the winner is revealed.”

The 2017 edition was won by Efe Ejeba, with Bisola Aiyeola as runner-up.

Other standout participants include Debie-Rise, Gifty Powers, Kemen, TBoss and Uriel Oputa.
